Adenolymphoma↗

[Use of the rendez-vous technique in endoscopic insertion of biliary prosthesis in malignant obstructive jaundice].

The paper describes the Authors' personal experience of the use of the rendez-vous technique (using a combined endoscopic-transhepatic route) for the endoscopic insertion of biliary prosthesis in cases of malignant obstructive jaundice. Having illustrated the series of cases, the paper proposes the use of this technique in the event of endoscopic failure due to the smaller incidence of complications compared the use of a wholly transhepatic route.

[Various epidemiological data on breast cancer in the north-west Canavese area].

A retrospective epidemiological investigation has been conducted on nipple cancer cases observed over the past 10 years in the hospital of Castellamonte and Cuorgné. The high percentage of advanced cases of breast cancer encountered indicates the need for facilities (accurate, wide-ranging information, a tracer unit etc.) to provide early and therefore useful treatment of breast cancer in the area in question.

[Evaluation of cellular DNA in the study of the relations between fibrocystic disease of the breast and breast cancer].

Two cases of breast carcinoma observed four years after breast biopsy for fibrocystic mastopathy are presented. These two cases have been subjected to microspectrophotometric measurement of cell DNA as an objective test for the evaluation of risk in breast fibrocystic disease. Tissue specimens of the two carcinoma cases showed in some lesions aneuploid DNA, while control groups always showed a typical diploid situation. This technique is suggested when epithelial proliferative pictures in adenose-cystic mastopathy seem to reach serious histopathological levels.

Breast Diseases↗

[Primary sclerosing cholangitis].

A case of intermittent cholostatic icterus has been observed at the Civil Hospital of Castellamonte. Clinical and laboratory examinations did not permit precise diagnosis, hence the decision to carry out exploratory surgery. The finding was hepato-choledochic fibrosis with severe stenosis of the lumen and patency of Vater's tubercle, with no calculosis or previous bile way operations. Transcholedochic and transpapillary biliary drainage was therefore performed with a T tube. The patient is in good condition about two years after the operation and cholangiocarcinoma can be excluded. It is therefore considered that the case can be classified as a "primary sclerosing cholangitis".
